Lightweight Full Coverage Foundation?

[mbee]

This is my first post...

A friend of mine has asked for my advice, and I don't know where to point her. She needs a FULL coverage foundation for problematic skin but wants a lightweight feeling because she is very low maintenance. Any recommendations?

Bare Minerals!! It feels just like a loose powder on but the coverage is amazing and very buildable!

What kind of skin problems? That's going to drastically effect what foundation she should use.

She has adult acne issues with otherwise normal skin. Her complexion is also very fair.

Is she on any sort of treatment for adult acne? This will also effect how makeup takes on the skin.

she's previously been to a dermatologist but she isn't currently undergoing any type of special treatment for it.

I'd suggest then, either trying a powder foundation and spot-concealing, or if she doesn't want a powder foundation, I'd say try a full coverage creme foundation thinned down to a more workable consistancy.
